Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.
The city of Boston ______ a new memorial sculpture in honour of Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King on Friday. The ______ for the 22-foot statue has been decidedly mixed, ranging from enthusiastic plaudits to consternation and outright jeers.
The monument, by artist Hank Willis Thomas, is called The Embrace; it is meant to ______ the relationship between the Kings. It was specifically inspired by a 1964 photograph of the ______ hugging.
Answer: C
The right set is 'unveiled', 'reception', 'honour' and 'couple'. A memorial sculpture is unveiled in a city on a given day. Reception is the way a public receives something, so 'the reception for the statue has been mixed' fits the praise and jeers. The monument is meant to honour the relationship between the Kings, and it was inspired by a photograph of the couple hugging. 'Exposed', 'revealed' and 'installed' are less natural for a statue, and 'duo' and 'twins' do not suit the Kings as a married couple.
